For the Bunnies.

Look into these eyes... and get mezmorized!

I have been raising these two dolls since they were barely a week old. So sick and so tiny. They fit in the palm of my hand and I have a small hand. I had to syring feed them milk and medicine three times a day. Their story is sad and not rare unfortunately. They were rescued from Santee Alley. A form of bunny trafficking...really. There are mother buns who are mated and pump out tiny babies who are then taken from their mothers as soon as they have fur...most of the bunnies have not even opened their eyes yet, but still are sold as "miniture bunnies." People will buy them, take them home and feed them carrots and lettuce only to have these beautiful babes die on them in about a week or so. This is happening now as you read this and it is not a pleasant death. I have seen that death and it is a memory I wish I could erase. To see a creature so small and so defenseless lose it's life for profit is horrible. Bunnies are a lot like human babies. They need milk for the first few months of their lives...they need their mothers...they need warmth...they need to build up their tiny little anitbodies and immune system before being taken away. They are delicate beings and it is unfortunate it is so easy to do this to them. So there it is.

The good news is that these two bunnies have had the proper care they need to make it...and I am very happy to say they are getting bigger and bigger each day. But it takes a lot of work and funds which are running a bit low. I am currently fostering these two love buns, but they need to see a vet. They also need to get fixed which is not cheap.

I am now reaching out...they need it. Please donate any amount you can so these two babes can make it to the vet, get fixed and get adopted! They deserve it.

I'll provide updates! And homemade greeting cards! Pictures and videos. They are so lovely so please help me help them. Thank you so much! Even if it was only to read about what is happening in Santee Alley. I appreciate it!
